We have come across a person and then know them as friends but do we really have an exceptional relationship with that person? Not really. There are many types of relationships. Deep, caring, average and so on. But were does relationship comes from? Solely from experiences with that person.

Why does experience shape relationship? It is because the more you experience with that person the more understanding you gain of knowing him. And knowing result in the growth of relationship. There are many example to describe this. One of them is that a stranger in this world and God in heaven. At first the person may not know God very much. But the more deeply he search for god, rely on god, and experience him, the more you would get a growing relationship with God and in the end you would be baptized to confirm this relationship and even deepen it as God becomes your heavenly father so that you may experience him more and have a more better relationship.

Another example is that when I met a stranger, I was not very familiar with him and we did not talk at all to each other. However as we began to see each other more often the shyness began to break away and we began talking, and playing sports together. As I experience him more, I know him better and as a result, deepening or relationship.

In the end, I have come to believe that experience shapes relationships. The relationship depends on how much time people spend time together. Don't believe me? Try it yourself!
